Metric Entropy of Homogeneous Spaces and Finsler Geometry of Classical Lie Groups ∗ Stanislaw J . Szarek

For a (compact) subset K of a metric space and ε > 0, the covering number N(K, ε) is defined as the smallest number of balls of radius ε whose union covers K. Knowledge of the metric entropy, i.e., the asymptotic behaviour of covering numbers for (families of) metric spaces is important in many areas of mathematics (geometry, functional analysis, probability, coding theory, to name a few). In t...

Unicorns in Finsler Geometry

By unicorns, I am referring to those mythical single-horned horse-like creatures for which there are only rumoured sightings by a privileged few. A similar situation exists in Finsler differential geometry. There, one has the hierarchy Euclidean ⊂ Minkowskian & Riemannian ⊂ Berwald ⊂ Landsberg among five families of metrics, in which the first two inclusions are known to be proper by virtue of ...

Common Fixed Points and Invariant Approximations for Cq-commuting Generalized nonexpansive mappings

Some common fixed point theorems for Cq-commuting generalized nonexpansive mappings have been proved in metric spaces. As applications, invariant approximation results are also obtained. The results proved in the paper extend and generalize several known results including those of M. Abbas and J.K. Kim [Bull. Korean Math. Soc. 44(2007) 537-545], I. Beg, N. Shahzad and M. Iqbal [Approx. Theory A...
